Qtter a brief hearing on the charges against Miss Keeler and three other persons, the case was adjourned until Sept. 13 and Miss Keeler was freed on bail totalling £3,000. She had been arrested Thurs- day night on a warrant alleg- ing perjury amd conspiracy to obstruct the course of justice. Also given bail, on similar charges, were Paula Hamilton- Marshall, 20, with whom Miss Keeler lived, and Mrs. Olive Dea viswn. Sameoen Ya v ounts juries allegedly caused by Gor- don would have been caused during the earlier affray, The third charge was that be- conspired falsely to accuse Ca- macchio of demanding "money with menaces" from Miss Kee- ler. Miss Keeler was also charged with perjury at Gordon's trial in the Old Bailey central crim- inal court here June 6. The charge on this was that on an indictment alleging Gor- don had wounded her, she made a false statement that no other man was present with her at her apartment other than Miss Hamilton - Marshall's brother when the incident took place.

Governor Of Alabama HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP)--A group of determined white mothers defied the powers of Governor George C. Wallace and his state troopers today and marched their. children into a grammar school Wallace had ordered closed for the day. About 25 women turned a fourth person, Jama! dolph Fenton, was charged conspiracy. Allefour appeared in court after spending the night in po- lice cells. CROWD GREETS THEM The three women were by a crowd of 200 when they left for court today. As they were driven away in 'a small truck, the crowd surged forward and some girls shouted: 'Good luck Christine." All three face three charges. The first is that they con- spired with others unknown to obstruct the course of justice by concealing information from po- Jice investigating an alleged as- sault on Miss Keeler by Aloys- fus Lucky Gordon. Gordon, a 31-year-old Jamai- can jazz singer, was jailed in June for assaulting Miss Keeler. But he was released eight weeks later after am appal court quashed his three - year term on the grounds that statements taken by police after : have caused a : J with if they had been presented to bis jury. The charge said the three 'women and Fenton concealed the fact that Fenton and a man mamed Clarence Raymond Co- macchio were present at the struggle during which the as- sault was alleged to have taken place and that Fenton had taken part in the struggle. CHARGE CONSPIRACY The second charge was that between April 17 and July 31 they conspired to conceal from police that earlier on the night of the alleged assault Miss Kee- ler was assaulted by someone else and that some of the in- RCMP Head To Meet With OPP On Crime Talks TORONTO (CP)--RCMP Com- missioner C. W. Harvison has been invited to discuss organ- ized crime with the Ontario Po- lice Commission Monday, Chair- man Judge Bruce Macdonald said Thursday. Commissioner Harvison said Aug. 16. at a Canadian National Exhibition luncheon that most organized crime in Canada was controlled by mafia-like syndi- cates based in the United States. Attorney-General Cass asked the police commission to inves- tigate the statement. Commissioner Harvison re- turned Thursday from an inter- national police convention held in Oslo, Norway. He is sched- uled.:to address the Canadian Police Chiefs convention in Hamilton Tuesday. Judge Macdonald said the commission will discuss crime with the police chiefs at a closed Hamilton session. Madame Nhu Leads Call Off BOWMANVILLE (Staff) East and West Beach residents called a temporary halt to de- monstrations by their 109 chil- dren demanding school bus fa- cilities last night. But the boy- cott of classes continues. A "temporary truce" was cal- led last night, after parents met with school board officials to try to settle the problem. The delegation was advised that the Department of Educa- tion Transportation Act did not provide for free buses for chil- dren living less than two miles from the nearest school. Both sides agreed that most of th Beach would not be under the Act. The Board said Carruthers Pledges Aid To Strikers BOWMANVILLE (Staff) Public School Board Chairman Paul Chant was asked this morning if the Board had con- tacted the Department of Edu- cation for help in solving the problem of transportation. He stated that there had been discussions, both with the de- partment and with the District School Inspector. "We want these children back in school," he said, "that is our main con- cern." He was asked if. the Board had sought financial help for the parents involved. : 'No, we never asked for any help of that type from the De- partment. That would be bark- ing up the wrong tree. There is no hope there." Alex Carruthers PC and Dur- ham MPP in the last: legisla- ture, was contacted this morn- ing and asked to comment on the matter, He said that he had not been asked for any assist- ance by either the parents or the Board. He said that if he were ap- proached he would help the peo- ple contact the Department of Education. "TI am sure that if the parents were to present their plight to the Department, the Depart- ment might be prepared to co- operate, They are usually an- xious to be of help to any par- ent or child, Striking Pupils Parades the act also states that if the grant is to be received from the Department that none of the costs over and above those paid by the Department may be paid by parents.

The gov- ernor's office said Wallace is a strong supporter of education and that his action was caused by unusual circumstances which he said existed in Alabama. At the other schools, the troopers ran into resentment on the part of parents. One woman wanted to know "what would you do if we broke through?" Troopers ignored the question. Wallace contends he can closet public schools by an executive order such as that he issued early today affecting Hunts- ville under broad police pow- ers written into state law. The statutes, however, do not clearly outline his authority in such matters. The troopers stationed them- selves in front of the schools TOKYO (AP) -- Communist China accused the Russians to- day of trying to subvert a dis- trict government of its uranium- rich Sinkiang province and of stirring up trouble on their common border in 1960. It said thousands of Chinese were lured or forced into the Soviet Union and are still there. Furthermore, Peking radio charged that Premier Khrush- chev in 1958 "put forward un- reasonable demands designed to bring China under Soviet mil- itary control." These demands were not explained. The article also declared that: 1, Peking forced Khrushchev to crush the 1956 Hungarian re- volt after he had decided to "abandon Socialist Hungary to counter-revolution." 2. In 1959, after his U.S. visit, Khrushchev "went so far as to try to sell China the U.S. plot of 'two Chinas' and lecture early in the day. They advised children and parents, that their walks from home had been use- less. Wallace issued his order after the local school board, backed by city council, rejected his ap- peal for a second postpone- ment. There had been one Mon- day. The council, in special ses- sion, sent a telegram to Wal- lace Thursday night to keep his hands off. State troopers turned the chil- dren away while city police di- rected heavy traffic in the area of the four schools slated for de- segregation. There were no clashes.

Bill Mitchell, speaking for the Beach parents, agreed to take the idea back to the parents and to try to arrive at a figure that they cduld afford. Mr. Mitchell asked' the Board once more if it would agree to put up a portion of the costs. "Let us say that we would not say that at this time we would not aid .you financially," was the reply. The delegates returned to their homes and a meeting was call- ed for 7:00 p.m. tonight to dis- cuss the matter with all of the parents concerned. A spokesman for the group stated after the meeting with the School Board that the chil- dren would not demonstrate to- day but that the boycott of the schools would continue.

CITES RESERVATIONS He cited several reservations about a federal schéme, though he said he has no doubt means can be found to work out the problem. Ontario's pension plan, differ- ing fundamentally from the fed- eral plan, was adopted at the|; last session of the legislature to take effect Jan. 1, 1965. A ma- jor distinction is that it is a pri- vate plan,.with companies such as 'insurance firms handling the funds for investment, while the federal scheme would operate through the treasury. The plans}; are far apart in other particu- lars. The: fate of any federal scheme is believed to hinge on acceptance by Ontario and Que- bec, more particularly by the larger province. Quebec Pre- mier Lesage is proposing a plan of his own--details undisclosed-- and has suggested it would be an obstacle to federal legisla tion in this field that cuts into provincial jurisdiction. Mr. Robarts dealt with the pension issue before 500 persons at a joint nomination m for the London North and Sou! ridings.
